Disorientating, constantly interesting, surreal, hypnotic, highly original and unpredictable.
Dizzying film (pardon the pun) in that I was never quite sure what it was about. Lost love? Really? Obsession, maybe? Either way, Stewart makes it work for the most part, even if it is pretty creepy and the ending is a little much.
A major staple in Hitchcock's career... very suspenseful, good plot twists.
